But what did you get for your chums, who waited with rapt attention on their bums?

I don't recall being sent a shopping list. This opportunity was yours to miss!

A mission to the Lego shop is assigned. An army of Gav-clones is soon to be mine! Requested by Andy and Ralph on a whim, A big load of minifigs that look just like him.

Just opened Monster Hunters Swamp man. Got it for a pound at a car boot sale. What a great little set.
Also just discovered that the little butler figure I got in a random box of mostly Transformers is in fact Alfred. So hes straight on to ebay before lego has the chance to release him in a new cheaper set.

Why I love car boot sales whatever number Im up to. Just got my self a Clone Turbo tank (7261) it is awesome and amazingly it is complete with box and instructions. Got it for £30 (plus another £20 on Technic) which is an absolute bargain, but frankly a little more than I try to spend on lego I plan to keep, but I don't want to sell it.

I made a ray gun out of Lego when I was wee, so I could pretend I was one of the folk from Alien Storm (an arcade game that had gripped my seven year old mind like a vice). Realism was never a priority, though. It was yellow.
I suppose if you're of a mindset that you can separate guns from their primary function- if you go to target ranges and that sort of thing on a regular basis like a lot of folk in the US tend to do, and a gun like that is just a device that makes a loud noise and puts holes in paper panels, then you can look at this book without concern. It's no different from other military models like a tank or a battleship.
It weirds me out good and proper, but I'm sure it has its fans and most of them probably don't have detailed plans for how they'd react if the government declared martial law and started rounding up Republican voters.

Tesco have quite a lot of the LOTR sets reduced. Most by about 25%, but the £30 Helms deep wall set is down to £15 which is making me very happy as it appears to be built in the same way as Helms Deep walls meaning it should just plug in to it.

Perhaps it is some sort of heavily modified Ace Custom, and they had to switch around the astromech to fit in some of the cool geegaws? :-)
No? Oh well, never mind.
